Why tell..... ?

As good as some of it is I was really dissapointed by the way in which Lt Keyali "outed" Moclan Engineer Locar as being "unnatural" after their excursion on the Simulator. Not least because I think they made for one of the best couples on this show- or any other. To say it in Bortus´words: " I was really looking forward to witness their mating. It would surely have been very eventful." All they really did was dance in a simulated 20th-century-earth environment, and this could surely have been filed under :" Cultural exchange". Or is this too much to bear for Moclan culture already? It probably is- as Klyden shows. He is increasingly hard to endure in his extreme views. But this is exactly what makes this so much more than just entertainment. Knowing this Lt Keyali should have considered her account of what transpired, and I think a woman of her abilities would have done so. Sometimes telling the truth doesn´t mean you have to tell everything. Or is this just what the future holds for us ? No secrets whatsoever? I´m sure glad i´ll be dead by then. So....... have fun, be safe, and remember: What happens on the holo-deck- stays on the holo-deck
